I thought I would get the senior citizens of my herd out today

That is awesome slammer!! Those are some gorgeous round hoods!! My poor old senior citizen keeps asking me when she can retire! I keep telling her...someday sweety, someday! Lol! She and I just finished mowing an acre and a half. Gotta love that round hood style! ;-)

oh yeah, it's my "this is a hell of a lot easier on my old back tool". feel free to copy .

I am very excited to announce that as of Saturday Sept 6th 2014 a new club has been established and named the BUCKEYE WHEEL HORSE COLLECTOR CLUB with a total of 21 registered members so far. A few of us local collectors here in Ohio have been talking about starting a club for years and we decided to make it happen this past weekend at the Mansfield,Ohio show. We will be sending out news letters to the registered members with more info,meetings etc..as they occur,we are currently working on a club logo.

Check 'em out! Whelen TIR3s in red, and 1 Whelen LIN3 in amber. Here is the new youtube vid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aa9ZSUqn8Qg&list=UUERiXFPymQ8udA7l1_MRVIw wheel horse leds.mov

I hesitated to start this thread but now I am glad I did. It looks like I was not the only dummy up here. If it saves one person from getting a punctured eye it served its purpose.

Glad to see your "blower" is RED, Wayne.

this is all i should need in the Arizona desert . sorry, just could not help myself.

Hi all as most of you may know I'm a bit of a wheelhorse Nut , and we all like to make and design our own attachment and adapt our machines to be as versatile as possible I've seen some original wheel horse generators on the net but they are very rare so I've decided to build one . I first started by sourcing a 240v Generator off that site . Then I've now been designing my own quick release cradle for it to sit in . Attached Thumbnails

It wasn't me, I was way over in SE Ohio. No really I was. I went to WV then turned left and went several more hours, above Athens OH. Plus I have 16 already, I have enough plows to sell this winter, just have to get them all sandblasted, painted and decaled up. The 3 I have on CL are 3 of 5 I bought. I had to buy 5 to get the 2 48" plows I wanted. The white one on CL I was told is a Bolens from a guy who wants it.

Thanks everyone for the interest in our club. We will be honored to have each & everyone of you. We will be having a board meeting very soon on how we are going to handle mail or internet sign up. We will be posting the info as soon as we have it.

After reading this...I've just ordered my full face grinding shield guys... should have had one all along, thanks for the tip.

Was going to do an around the neighbor hood video but it's over 100 on the Tarmac! Had to settle for a few poses.

Wayne you are one sick puppy!!! +1

Slammer, great post of the senior citizens. Comment made by a senior citizen. GLENN

Wow... I think even those are a little crazy priced! It never even dawned on me that there would be someone reproducing batteries in the original style cases. I suppose though... both of you (Craig and Martin) being car enthusiasts, you've probably known about this for a while. Pretty cool little detail part if you are after the truest representation of originality. I agree though, that for the majority of us Wheel Horse guys, at that kind of price, it's absolutely ridiculous. However.... if someone only had one tractor and no room for another or something, I could totally see spending more money on making a "perfect" restoration. People do it all the time in other hobbies.

GADZOOKS!!! Bet that was a surprise! I had something like that happen about an hour ago. Went to get my homemade front weight for the 701, that I had stored by the well house this summer, to give it a fresh coat of paint...and to my surprise!!!!....There's a spider the size of, what appeared to me, a tennis ball staring out of that web hole! So I decided to wait til I get some bug spray to paint it...then I happened to look up...and said forget it! Lol!

So you havent been doing your homework for the first 2 weeks Mr Saurus? Youre doing pretty good for a hack! I would suggest you and all the others on here start putting a little time and effort into this or I'll be the man to beat all season...Remember second place is just the first L-O-S-E-R!

Although it is a fact for me, I have a great sense of humor, and am always making eye/one-eye jokes and jokes about myself...Often I say "It's all fun & games until somebody loses an eye.. because then I have to find it, etc..." And "There is no "I" in team, but there IS one "eye" in me!" Gotta laugh at what comes our way..... As Jimmy Buffett said "If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane" But seriously guys... take care of 'em..... prosthetics are expensive!

Glenn, who's that I see there wearing the steel toed sandals?

For sale: Ouija Board

STOP IT... he killed that one years ago.

Trimming off excess thread. Finished door on right. Original on left.

We hit a grand slam with the W.H. displays at the Mansfield show this weekend,awesome show,great time with fellow collectors...

Putzed around the house mounting up the RJ plow and tombstone today.

On Saturday the little Electro went to Cajun Model Fest here in Baton Rouge and did alright. After winning in its class it took "Best Auto" which is one of the top level prizes. It might be a bit of a stretch to call it an auto but I was able to enter it as an off-road vehicle which made it eligible in the Automotive category. Thanks to all the Red Square members for the enthusiastic support. It wouldn't have been such a success without you!

Mentone Indiana garden tractor show and swap meet. Starting this year we will be charging everyone selling parts a $5 selling fee. The reason for this fee is because the park is $50 a day and two day insurance is $200. We only made $86 in donations at the spring swap meet and that does not even cover the postage for me to mail flyers out. As I see it $5 isn't much and shouldn't scare any sellers off and wont cover all the cost but sure will help Richard and I out covering the rest. If any one has any questions please feel free to contact Richard or me. Thanks.

MJ has been needing something she can do at home that doesn't require any exertion something that will keep her mind busy, Possibly where she can make a couple coins along the way. I did a lot of research and during this research I found a great respect for our friend Terry Dennis "VINYL GUY" I now have a good understanding what this man does, and all the work and knowledge it takes to do the fine art that he produces our decals with. I made an Investment in some equipment and set her up a small vinyl shop in the Ole M Den down in the Basement. She will be cutting simplistic Decals and we will be doing a lot of glass carving and etching along with sublimation of T Shirts and Coffee Mugs. don't know where this will lead but she is a very creative individual. Anyway here is some pictures of her new shop. You guys that know me know if I do something I'm gonna try and do it right and set her up within my budget and best of my ability, After all she has put up with my hair brained Ideas for 32 years so its the least I can do! Anyways I wish her luck and hope she does well at it. P.S there will be a lot more pictures coming home from my office at work! Thanks ~Duke

Is it just me, or have you guys ever seen a Chevelle come off the line like this one did?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Perfect. That confirms my suspicions about testing. That is very similar to the way you test a kohler trigger module. Judging by the way you need both north and south pole to trigger the module, I would surely says its a hall effect sensor and some other goodys. Thanks for finding that! I knew that darn squirrel was ahead of me again.

The underside huh? You got it too!

You're outta control Geno.

AJ..no one is sure about Rutgers yet...we are just riding the wave...and they are at Home. Come to think of it...there is only 1 sure thing in the Big Ten this season...Purdue could go 0 and 12...the rest is up for grabs.

for sharin the pics, ain't it amazin what some folks come up with

and . I know you're new to the forum but if you can post a few pictures for us old pharts.

thanks for the replies and I am waiting for switch till I do anything else..

So now we know!!!

Steve how come you don't add the teams BCS ranking? Edit: I guess I shouldn't say BCS because that is not available until week 8.. So let me try that again.. " Steve how come you don't add the teams National rank based on the AP Poll " There thats more better!!

Dave, if you going to rewire your tractor, I might suggest looking into the "MAXI FUSE" style of fuse holder for the 30 amp fuses. These are a holder / fuse combo that are intended for reliable high amperage connections. The fuse actually bolts onto a substantial fuse holder and provides a long term reliable connection. Just as the high current compromises the fuse holder, the 9 pin engine harness connector also suffers from degraded connections on certain pins within the male / female MOLEX connector. You will most likely see evidence of heat stress or aging of the plastic housing on the engine harness connection also. There are several posts which point out sources to purchase replacement pins and connector shells for this area.

Better get it before somebody else does!

Murb. Yea , it's all there including the flag....that's a plus. Looks like the auger has had some encounters though. Were you using it to till the rock garden?? If it were mine, I would straighten the auger and ask $150. Just my .

Good show Mrs rancher and I were there on Friday

agreed on the shorted regulator the TORO voltmeters are OK as long as you realize their limitations - to me, the markings are off. The inaccurate voltage indications can be mediated by inserting a resistor in line with the meter leads. I thought I did a post on that issue years ago, I'll have to look,

I managed to get the gearbox and chassis cleaned and painted The remote gear linkages are almost there, not a lot of room for both and the steering box. Here's the two halves on different benches just waiting to come together. Bendy will be on all fours next weekend :D

I got home from work early today , it was glorious September sunshine so I wheeled out the two ponds to do a little dusting around before I put them back in the stable to cozy up for the winter. While they we out I thought it was a good time for a photo shoot.

Because of the way I had to mount the rack up side down, I had to make a reversing drop box. I took a gear from a oil pump and cut in two and added shafts to them, machined a case added roller bearings. And this is what I came up with.

Check out this site. Carolina Reaper, Trinidad Scorpion, etc. They've got what are supposed to be the hottest peppers in the world. I broke out in a sweat just reading about them. http://www.organicseedsdirect.com

I bought the snow thrower at the sale in pa this was when I first got it home I've got wheel weights and chains on it now missed out on a snowcab

Its going to leak because its installed wrong. Nothing to do with the deck. Any Job big or small, do it twice or not at all!!

Bob, I can just see the smile on MJ's face. That has to be worth it right there. The best of luck to you guys. BTW...the office looks great.
